Pieces of Flare

As I'm sure you've heard, '70s fashion is back in for Spring 2011. And I'm not-so-secretly thrilled. Because while I have a harsh aversion to pants - namely jeans - I've never been able to part with my bell bottoms and flare jeans. Ever since I was 15 years old, this silhouette was my immediate go to. I felt the flared bottom balanced out my wide hips and thighs, plus hid the fact I never wore really cute shoes. I've never even purchased boot-cut jeans, because they never felt wide enough!

I'll probably need to transform body types and grow 6 inches for this look to flatter me, but I love the styling of the flares in this outfit:

Also like how Mandy Moore wears flares here. Then again I love anything MM wears. (more on that later)

Oh, and I can't forget the inspiration for this post -- Melissa Molinaro (who you may remember from Making the Band) from the latest Old Navy Super C-U-T-E commercial. 




Will you be rockin' the hippie flares this spring? Or have you never stopped like me?
